FAQs

What makes the GEL cushioning beneficial?

The GEL cushioning technology in the midsole absorbs shock during impact, providing comfort and reducing stress on your joints during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they offer good cushioning and support for general wear, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers with a retro running aesthetic. For dedicated high-performance running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Your heel should feel secure without slipping, and there should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. It is recommended to try them on or check detailed size guides.

Can the mesh uppers get wet?

The mesh uppers are breathable, but they can get wet. It's best to allow them to air dry completely after getting wet and avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

What is the 'late 2000s retro runner silhouette'?

This refers to the design language and shape characteristic of running shoes from that specific era, often featuring layered materials and a distinct profile.

How do I clean the suede overlays?

Use a soft suede brush to gently remove dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by brushing.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the issue persists, consider using thicker socks or insoles for a snugger fit.

Suede material looking dull

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material. For stubborn marks, consult specialized suede cleaners.

Traction issues on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but always exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal grip.
